About Frank

Frank Brants has spent 34 years as an IT consultant — from desktop support and network cabling to enterprise infrastructure design to AI-augmented full-stack development. That range of experience informs everything we build at Brants Design.

As a full-stack developer and infrastructure architect, Frank works across the entire technology stack: Python and TypeScript application development, PostgreSQL database design, Linux systems administration, and network infrastructure engineering. Hands-on experience with everything from rack builds and cabling to application architecture means fewer assumptions and faster problem-solving.

Today, Brants Design operates with an AI-augmented development workflow — using tools like Claude Code to accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality or architectural rigor. The result is faster turnaround, cleaner code, and more time spent on the decisions that actually matter to your business.

Our Approach

AI-Augmented, Not AI-Replaced

We use AI tools like Claude Code to accelerate development, but every architectural decision and code review is human-driven. AI handles the repetitive work so we can focus on the decisions that matter.

Security-First

Every project runs on isolated, firewalled infrastructure with network segmentation, not shared hosting. Your application and data live in their own environment from day one.

You Own Everything

Source code, data, infrastructure — no vendor lock-in, no proprietary dependencies. If you ever decide to move on, you take everything with you.

The Infrastructure

Every project we deliver runs on dedicated, on-premises infrastructure — not a shared cloud instance.

  • Commodity Dell workstation-class hardware (dual Xeon, 512GB RAM)
  • Proxmox VE virtualization with per-client isolated environments
  • 5-tier network segmentation (DMZ, App, DB, Management, Security)
  • OPNsense firewalls, Cloudflare CDN/DDoS protection

The same infrastructure we use for our own applications — battle-tested and production-ready.
